If you're on the fence about an ultrawide or if you're trying to pick up something for office work, just get this one and ignore the haters if they pop up in this thread.

Is it going to compete with a Samsung OLED? No. Is it going to compete with the LG top end 34" ultrawide? No.

Is it the best ultrawide you're gonna get at $155 and be WAY BETTER than your 1080p 60hz 27" monitor you've had for 5 years? You betcha.

I bought 8 of these for my employees in IT a year ago, and they've been fantastic. Had one of them show up busted, but it was an easy return. They are a little dim out of the box, but it's because they're in some sort of low power mode.

Could not recommend more at this price point.
I just couldn't get used to the oddness of a 32 inch ultrawide curved monitor, and went back to 2 seperate 27 inch 16:9 monitors.

downsides I encountered:
-older games won't work without patches or workarounds, or won't work, at ultrawide resolutions. If you play alot of vintage games it's probably not worth the headaches.
-some hud elements are flung into distant corners, such as minimaps in RTS/MOBA type games, which is problematic
-Same with UI elements of some programs, like Pearson Vue testing worked horribly on an ultrawide
"Display Screen Technology
Vertical Alignment (VA)"

Taken from the listing for those wondering.

Could you explain why you think the G5 is a better buy? The specs of the two monitors seem pretty similar, and the Acer is $73 less with a 2 year warranty.

One of the reviewers on AMZ says it caught fire. and it only has a 30 day return and the 0 ZERO ShitState Warranty.

"The monitor seemed pretty cool when I turned it on but shortly after it literally caught on fire in my apartment leaving black stains on my wall from the fire and Acer is refusing to do anything about it and told me the monitor catching on fire was not covered under warranty and they won't send me a replacement"

I have an ultrawide with a worse panel I'm trying to sell 2nd hand because I bought the Samsung OLED deal.
This deal is less than what I'm listing my monitor for and might kill any chance I have getting rid of it on the used market lol.

Daaang! The price on this bad-boy keeps going down. I'm typing this comment from a refurb (excellent) of this screen that I got from (The Great South American Rainforest) for $205 shipped. I thought it was a steal at that price. Mine came packaged pretty poorly but luck was on my side and it arrived in perfect condition. At this price I would absolutely recommend this display. I mainly use it for playing competitive shooters (Hunt: Showdown) and it's built in presets are actually quite nice for quickly switching between modes where games look better vs modes where movies/productivity stuff looks better.
